The screenshots showing up full screen was the default behavior since the beginning, it only changed with iOS 18.0. Thank Goodness theyre bringing it back, how does it seem better for you to have to tap twice to expand a screenshot
Even with the IOS 18.1 update Apple Note is still broken. I see this is a known issue, what is Apple waiting for ? All notes that are a little too long start to slow down a lot when typing. Using Apple Note heats up the phone and uses up the battery quickly. I can't work properly any more and I urgently need to fix this problem. What is Apple doing ?
@@4daTECH The photos app is a bit of a mess but definitely still usable. Battery and performance seem very good and stable. If you can live through the bugs for a week, I would update.
Hey man sometimes I watch these before updating or while updating and I was thinking it would be nice if you could talk about the big bugs like stickers disappearing or dark Lock Screen at the start of the video with a little warning about how people might not want to update to this beta before getting into the new features
He showed the issue which is an implied warning, people should simply watch the video in full and take note of the information he provided. Besides, Apple has always given us the typical disclaimer about downloading Betas.
When using the image wand, I noticed that sketching an object doesn’t instantly generate the image. Instead, it prompts you to “Describe an image.” Based on your description, it creates something that resembles your original sketch while incorporating the details you provided. For example, I drew a rough outline of a human and entered “giraffe” as my description. The result was a giraffe shaped in the form of the human I had sketched.
@@PaulRybicki83I have an apple watch series 9 tried installing the update can’t install it I resetting my watch still installed the update I think it’s server side issue with Apple
Can you compare the flashlight toggle in iOS 17 to iOS 18? In iOS 17, you could easily long-press the flashlight button to adjust the brightness anytime. But in iOS 18, you can’t long-press the button when it’s already on. You have to turn it off and then turn it back on again. Can you highlight that to Apple please? We know they watch your videos…
4:10 Thank goodness they did away with that auto image zoom out preview. It's beyond annoying. Thankfully I merely use Google Photos so I never really have to deal with it.
@@BrandonButch True. Does the carousel still hide when manually zooming in? I find it inconvenient to have to zoom out completely to be able to access it. It wasn't this way in 17 :(
@brandone butch does the phone feel smoother with no lags when you scroll through the apps? 18.1 has a minor lag when i go from the main page to the left side where the widdgets are it looks a bit choppy. i'm on 18.1 i hope they fix it when i get the 18.3 final release.
I’ve had that sticker bug since the beginning of Ios 18 now on ios 18.2 beta 3 on iphone 16 pro everytime I try to save a sticker it just instantly disappears and doesn’t save
I’m so glad they fixed photos app. It was so annoying that to scrub through a video you’d have to pop back out from full screen. I’m willing to get a bit of covering but more functionality. Now you can tap and make it disappear
same. Id assume we wont get it sadly. Id bet we just have to wait for full release. We bought 5 new 16s for my family and only 1 of them has gotten access, and it was gave same day
To be honest, I really don’t understand why they keep making so many changes. It actually works good how things are now. When you keep making changes or keep fixing something, that’s not broken
hmmm all these people saying they are going to skip this round? the reason they public source beta software is to have many hands finding and reporting bugs. If you decide to skip beta releases because of little bugs then perhaps beta testing is not for you. With my iPhone 14pro I cannot use AI stuff so I am not beta testing at all but watching to see what is going on.
hey brandon, great video as always. just wondering, have you experienced any overheating with your ipad when using the notes app with any apple pencil? i use my ipad mainly for note taking and the overheat (and consequentially battery drain) is a real issue. thanks!
I've been waiting for early access for Image Playground for the past few days on my Mac. I tried switching from dev beta to public but no luck. Hopefully this new update gives me access. I'm not sure if this is something on my end or if other people are experiencing this too
Does anybody know why Genmoji isn't showing up for me in my emoji search? I have 18.2 Beta 2 and just got accepted into the developer trial today. I have image wand and Image Playground but no Genmoji.
Are you a fan of the change to the Photos app?
Definitely.. Apple is on top of the game
I would have liked it before (like during the iOS 18 betas) but now it seems weird cause I got the habit of seeing the “old” style
Thank God they fixed it. I hated the slim look of videos and/or photos after updating to iOS 18.
No that looks buggy, I liked the full view.
Once they fix the UI overlapping yes
Brandon I swear you are like my favorite iOS reviewer. So detailed and I like how you explain everything out. Keep up the good work. Love the videos.
Thanks! I appreciate it
@@BrandonButch you really are, I’m definitely subscribed
I second that. Love his videos
I third that love his videos
@@BrandonButch I’m curious, could you create a course that teaches us how to be more like you? I’d love to learn from your positive energy!
Might hold off a week on this one. Thanks for the video as always!
Same as i thought
Is your battery life taking a hit? I’m on 18.1 and its draining
@@nanojimenez7079what’s your phone? I’m thinking of updating idk tho
@@nanojimenez7079 yeah, every beta since the beginning of iOS 18 has been brutal on battery life.
@@nanojimenez7079what model are you using? I’m 16 pro max and I turned off refresh for everything and my battery is absolutely phenomenal
Definitely skipping this release! Thanks for the video!!
me 2...I think I will skip the release too many issues...
They keep messing around with the photos app 💀
That photo layout is annoying as hell. Got to be a bug or someone is getting fired 😂
Not everyone have these bugs, i downloaded it but i don’t have these bugs
Yes skipping this one because of the photos
Beta 2 has been really stable for me, but it kinda sounds like Beta 3 has a lot more issues so I’m just gonna stay where I am for now
I am frustrated that I am still on the wait list to receive Playground and Image Wand
Me 2 thought I was the only one lol
@@BrooklynsavoI finally received the “Playground” and “Image Wand” yesterday afternoon.

they changed it in the first place because it’s just an awful ui. idk why anybody would prefer their photos to be blocked
Already updated before this video so I hope I like it!
i’m the same way, i download the update then go watch what i just did lmao. no going back for me
Same here 😂

Create image makes more sense

Hey where did you get that macintosh wallpaper in the video??!!! i really like it!!
what about battery intelligence
all the changes to the new photos ui feels like an incorrect way of trying to fix a non-existent problem :/
the new photos app itself a problem
Default fullscreen images and videos is not a regression. Thank god they fixed it.
How do i get that wallpaper?
2:43 Draw your image. Click done top right. Long press on the image, add to playground/create image option is there. Been there since Beta 2 😉
Wallpaper link please!!1
Anyone else having problems installing the watchOS
yep, notably with the Ultra 2 and Series 9
@ resetting the watch doesn’t fix it either.

It went smooth for me. Ultra 1st Gen

I just really don't like that the image carousel covers up part of the photo/video. Hope that gets adjusted
5:06 Again, I'm so glad they moved the back button back to where it was in 17. It was annoying to have it in place of the three dot drop down menu.
@@BrandonButch True. Does the carousel still hide when manually zooming in?
I find it inconvenient to have to zoom out completely to be able to access it. It wasn't this way in 17 :(
Yeah it’s perfect for me like this

Right on time🔥
I still don’t have this beta available on my phone
Just wondering what kinda wallpaper is that I love it
Wallpaper Central -> Ipod collection
3:43 is this not just what the photo app did before we got iOS 18? I thought it always that way.
Where the heck is the “waitlist”
Thank you for a new video going through a breakup

I’ve had that sticker bug since the beginning of Ios 18 now on ios 18.2 beta 3 on iphone 16 pro everytime I try to save a sticker it just instantly disappears and doesn’t save
3:28 They fixed it!! Finally!!
Does anyone know how to get the colorful keyboard
Thanks ✌🏼️
I finally got access🙃
RCS has not been working with iOS 18.2 Betas

0:22 don't forget homepod
I hope apple add the option
that i can slide back from right or left of the screen
I like the apple symbol over chat icon
Havent even got access to image playground etc.. still on the waitlist..been nearly a week now.
same. Id assume we wont get it sadly. Id bet we just have to wait for full release. We bought 5 new 16s for my family and only 1 of them has gotten access, and it was gave same day
You are not missing anything.
@@8lives873 Quite annoying really, and then google is releasing the Gemini client to iphones...apple better pull there finger out lol
Took over 10 days until I got image playground.
Just got mine today after requesting for about a week and a half. Yours is probably soon!
Hi Brandon. Is there a colored keyboard you can recommend?
Brandon, why am I still on the waiting list on IOS 18.2 Beta 3? It’s been a week!
X2
I joined 18hours later got access 1week ago
Shitttt i waited 3 weeks to get pass the waitlist. Def some cool features tho for sure
Image Playground still on Requesting for over 2 weeks now. Anyone else??!
Joined the Image Playground waitlist when on 18.2 Beta 1, on my iPad still haven't got in.. anyone else still waiting?
Great video I like these new features it feels like a new phone with the AI🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
18.2 Beta 3 just came out today.
Finally, one klick camera lunch without the screen needs to be on first!
You didn’t mention af lock on capture button light press.
To be honest, I really don’t understand why they keep making so many changes. It actually works good how things are now. When you keep making changes or keep fixing something, that’s not broken
On public beta and still on the waitlist for Image Playground 😢
When is apple releasing all health new features to the rest of the world?
LOL. This is so funny😂😂😂😂😂
IM STILL WAITING FOR ACCESS ON THE IOS 18.2 PUBLIC BETA
4:58 I prefer the old UI
did they give you an option for blur or remove an object in the clean up tool for photos? or is it still up to the ai to decide
I think I’m going to skip this Version and stay on beta 2.
my lock screen is is how it is supposed to be, so i think its a bug just for some of iphones?

Go to battery it says update is installing in the backgrounf
is Genmoji available on Mac or not yet?
this update is getting more awesome with each beta
Did you watch the video? This release is full of bugs. 😢
I just want them to fix the touch screen issues
My iPhone 13 says that it has 2.9 gigabytes in Apple intelligence data downloaded on it but I can’t use it at all.
Apple Intelligence isn’t downloaded to unsupported devices. Are you sure you’re not referring to the update size?
Do we have something like circle to search ????
Dang I haven’t had any issues with stickers or my Lock Screen
Brandon you are our ios hero mate ❤
why this beta if only popular people on the Internet have access to the playground feature?
It takes a little while for it to process mine came through on Thursday I’m on public beta
Apple intelligence not showing in china variant iphones even after the region change?
they fixed the photo viewer to how it used 2 be
All my notes in the notes app have just disappeared after updating to iOS 18.2 beta 2 and iOS 18.2 beta 3 has not fixed it.
How do u even update AirPods?
Zoom photo in and out is this AI connected? Because I have IOS18.2 beta 3 and this option is not available..
Interesting. My stickers have always remained after each beta update
Siri not working when I hold the button
hi - again, anyone able to summarise whats new in ios 18.2 for iphone 14 pro max? ive noted the updated mail app but anything else new?
hey brandon, great video as always. just wondering, have you experienced any overheating with your ipad when using the notes app with any apple pencil? i use my ipad mainly for note taking and the overheat (and consequentially battery drain) is a real issue. thanks!
hope they fix all those problems by then
Does ipasOS have the new mail app?
Not yet
9:34 all my stickers are still there. No issues whatsoever after updating to beta 3. So far so good at least for me.
Mark Gurman: 18.2 beta 3 is polished.
That's the thing about Betas: Everyone's experience will be different.
@@BrandonButchthat’s right!! Mine came in at 800mb plus on 15 Pro Max and no bugs.
4:22 I hope its a bug, its really worse current iOS 18.1 photos UI is good
My Lock Screen seems to work correctly.
Thanks for the helpful warning before i update!
Why is it downloading too slow
I like the new image view in the photos app. It´s now like in iOS 17 and before!
I hate to tap every time I want to show somebody a picture!
I am not having these issues on my iPhone 15 Pro Max.
I might skip this beta just because I don't wanna go back to downloading Image playground
Bro always sounds so excited to say “opaque”
I just hope the battery is as good as beta 2.
My battery was peeeerrrrrrrfect lasting all day.
You’re right. Battery life has been good with beta 2.
Tons of glitches on the markup app that Apple needs to fix 👍
I've been waiting for early access for Image Playground for the past few days on my Mac. I tried switching from dev beta to public but no luck. Hopefully this new update gives me access. I'm not sure if this is something on my end or if other people are experiencing this too
It took me 2 weeks to get accepted
@ damn, that sucks. I guess I'll keep waiting, thanks dude
I like the photo gallery change, I don’t think it’s a regression. Didn’t like all the clicks to see the photo full screen.
Does anybody know why Genmoji isn't showing up for me in my emoji search? I have 18.2 Beta 2 and just got accepted into the developer trial today. I have image wand and Image Playground but no Genmoji.
If you factory reset phone lock screen issue will be gone
photos is better in full screen. just fix the button. i cant see the pic as good with the border. thanks for the videos
Image wand in notes works if you takes that extra strep to describe it
@BrandonButch have you heard of low light photography issues on the new iPhone 16’s?
